Bread Knive
Bread Knive
I guess pretty much any bread knife is a bifl one, but in the twenty odd years i've had this, i keep thinking to myself that this knife is awesome basically any time i use it. That's why i want to recommend it. When I bought it it was quite cheap too, does not seem to be the case anymore. Is a Victorinox 5.2930.26

I make my own bread. A good bread knife is worth it. I also have an electric one that's a couple decades old with a bread maker another couple of decades old.
In your experience, is making your own bread cheaper than just buying bread? Or do you do it for the love of making your own bread?
I like the idea of it, but if it ends up being more expensive anyway, I don't really wanna do it. It's just so easy to buy a loaf of bread at the store.
But I also like the idea of making some tasty bread and mixing in some protein powder so I could have protein bread. lol
In terms of ingredients it's super cheap. I make sourdough, so it's just the cost of flour and salt. Back of envelope math tells me the electricity is probably less than C$1 even if I preheat a stone for an hour and bake a single loaf.
It takes enough time that it all depends on how you value your time. It's probably something like 30m of work spread out over a couple of days in a bunch of steps. I find it (mostly) relaxing, and it fits into my routine, so I don't really worry about the time. If I wanted to save time that badly I could drink instant coffee, get rid of all my houseplants, etc.
Good to know. I may have to revisit this idea.
